Welcome to Spring at the New Witte Museum! is the Educators’ Guide to the Witte Museum. WITTE CONNECTIONS will help you plan your visit. Hands-on and experiential learning are key to exploring the New Witte’s immersive spaces, outdoor experiences and educational programs. Shaded by 300-year-old Bald Cypress trees, you and your students begin your journey at the Feik Family Orientation Pavilion located on Broadway at the bend of the San Antonio River. In the new Valero Great Hall you will begin your encounter with an opportunity to explore geological time at the Texas Deep Time wall. You and your students will then embark on an immersive journey through Texas in the Gates Mineral Company Orientation Theater. The New Witte will inspire your students to learn through exhibits and programs that focus on: • dinosaurs and other creatures that roamed the land, water and sky millions of years ago in what is now called Texas • hunters and gatherers of the Lower Pecos region who thrived by knowing the land, water and sky thousands of years ago and • early settlers and legendary personas who experienced changes to the land, water and sky as they settled Texas hundreds of years ago. WITTE CONNECTIONS is your guide to planning your visit to the new Witte Museum.
